BSNL 3G Broadband Plans, Settings and Usage Details

Being a state-owned telecommunications company, it is not easy to deal with BSNL. BSNL is one of the best 3G service provider in India covering more than 760 cities. Getting a BSNL 3G connection is not a difficult task. Just go to your nearest BSNL office and ask for a Pre-Paid connection. You just need to provide your address proof and a one time payment of Rs. 120 for the SIM card. You can recharge for Rs.400 which will give you 1GB data for 1 month.

Access Point Name(APN) Settings for BSNL 3G

Its again simple, for any handset go to APN settings and add a new APN with the following details:

APN Name: bsnlnet
Other Settings: Default

If 3G is not available on your network, you can use the GPRS for data, use the following settings for GPRS:

APN Name: bsnlsouth or gprssouth.cellone.in or gprswest.cellone.in or gprsnorth.cellone.in
Other Settings: Default

These settings works well with HTC Desire HD, Samsung Galaxy S, iPhone and iPad. Let me know if you are facing any issues setting up 3G on your smart phone.

How to know 3G usage details?


BSNL sends automated message every 30 minutes or while you disconnect your data connection. Also you can dial the following numbers(may not work on some circles):

*123*6#
